This is a great alternative for those of us who enjoy sugar alternatives. Just Like Sugar is a great product that has no sugar, yet is sweet and tasty. It is not artificial and has a fruity finish. For this recipe I just used a little to give a very subtle sweetness to the oatmeal. The sprinkle of salt adds a buttery flavor to the mix.

1 C cooked old-fashioned oatmeal

1 t Just Like Sugar

1/2 t vanilla

1/4 t cinnamon

sprinkle of salt

Mix all ingredients together with oatmeal and enjoy this low-calorie, no sugar om of the day.

I love peanut butter but I don’t love some of the things that come with it, including the extra calories. So, when I found that Torani had a sugar-free peanut butter syrup, I had to try it. And, it’s pretty good, especially for a ‘fake-out’.

Add syrup, raisins, cinnamon and salt to a bowl. Mix in oatmeal and enjoy!
